      <p>In the 4.0 release, the Berkeley DB C++ API has been changed to use the ISO
standard C++ API in preference to the older, less portable interfaces,
where available.  This means the Berkeley DB methods that used to take an
ostream object as a parameter now expect a std::ostream.  Specifically,
the following methods have changed:</p>
      <pre class="programlisting">DbEnv::set_error_stream
Db::set_error_stream
Db::verify</pre>
      <p>On many platforms, the old and the new C++ styles are interchangeable;
on some platforms (notably Windows systems), they are incompatible. If
your code uses these methods and you have trouble with the 4.0 release,
you should update code that looks like this:</p>
      <pre class="programlisting">#include &lt;iostream.h&gt;
#include &lt;db_cxx.h&gt;

void foo(Db db) {
	db.set_error_stream(&amp;cerr);
}</pre>
      <p>to look like this:</p>
      <pre class="programlisting">#include &lt;iostream&gt;
#include &lt;db_cxx.h&gt;

using std::cerr;

void foo(Db db) {
	db.set_error_stream(&amp;cerr);
}</pre>
